Paths

I suppose for the A-Z Challenge I could have picked Photography for today’s post. Instead I chose Paths. I love the less travelled path. I love exploring when there’s no one else around. Below are some photos I took around Australia.

What type of paths are you most drawn to?

Note: For the month of April during the A-Z Challenge I am pausing from my usual blogging theme of writing and social media tips. Instead I hope to share with you my photography. Much of it is inspired by the fabulous and helpful site, The Bookshelf Muse. Please check it out and enjoy.

We drive 40 minutes to Christ Our Hope, our little country church. It's a beautiful drive from north Alabama to middle Tennessee. My favorite spot is where we go downhill through a tunnel of green and around a bluff beside a creek. Beautiful! I'm usually reading, but I always stop to take in the scenery here.

Your middle one says motorcycle ride to me, while the last one reminds me of the Appalachian Trail leading to our next night of rest. I love to walk and hike, and even backpack for days on the path less traveled. God bless and thanks for sharing.

This post reminds me of one of my favourite poems, Robert Frost's The Road Not Taken. He talks of meeting a fork in the road and taking the less travelled one, thinking that he'd return to try the other but knowing that he never would. It tugs at a heart string of mine as do those paths in your post. I especially like the third one, lots of trees and mystery.A to Z of Nostalgia

I am drawn to paths least taken. cm But seriously, we have a huge forest a mile away (Chattahoochie National Forest) and inside it is quite beautiful, the sounds, the sights and all. A great "P'ost here.

I like ones that are off the beaten track. There might be a few overhanging branches or nettles to contend with, but that's all part of it. It's usually worth it. I've been down paths like this in Australia that ended in a stunning view of a coastline (much like your lovely pictures the day before!)
